that's an excellent standup DVD tray. The 2nd shot helps show the depth of it. I must say, I'm not a fan of the two teddy bears though. One would be better.

Have you ever had Hi Def before?

Once you go Hi Def you can't go back; especially with sports.

hey, keep in mind, most "digital" cables, etc.. for short distances... you don't need anything good.

for audio for example, you can get a cheap optical for $10 (only 2 feet though) and for a digital coax, and A/V cable will do if you're only going to use a 6" cable...

don't get ripped off.

have fun. i got component cables hooked up on mine... i just never watch it. haha

widescreen movies all the way!

Just pick up some component cables from 2001 audio video, they sell canadian made ultralink, they aren't too expensive and they're nice higher quality cables, I think I paid 40 dollars for a 6 or 9 foot. As long as you don't buy monster cable lol, theyre crazily overpriced.

HDTV rocks, I <3 my panasonic crt rptv, now if only I could find an over the air hdtv pvr I'd be set.

haha yeah cable is expensive but totally worth the money. ur dad is a smart man

BTW, that's an excellent TV my buddy has the exact same one, it's nice and bright with great capabilitites.

I kinda wish I waited, but about a year or so ago I got a Toshiba 52 inch rear projection HDTV. Now I wish I had gone plasma or LCD. maybe in a couple of years.
